Priska Baumgartner and Katja Fritzsche take care of our two cats and our apartment (plants, etc) when we're away, and we've been very pleased with their work. They also seem to be familiar with the vets in the region, which provides an extra peace of mind. We recommend them highly. Details of their (geographical) area of service can be found on their website. One potential downside is that they don't speak English. In 2004, the firm was written up in the NZZ http://www.speedy-service.ch/daten/referenzen/zeitungsartikel.php [zc]
Places you can board your pets when you travel
- Zürcher Tierschutz , Zuerichbergstrasse 263, 8044 Zürich, 044 261 97 14, http://www.animal-protection.ch/vereinprojekt/kontakt.html
Mainly an animal shelter for homeless animals, they also board cats and dogs. I have no personal experience with them, although I did visit them once to check out the facility. During my visit, several people came in who appeared to be repeat customers. The people who were on duty were happy to show me the cat kennel areas, and answer my questions as best as they could.
